Diospyros Australis
''Diospyros australis '' is the most southerly of the group of some 450 ebonies and persimmons. It is a shrub or small tree growing in rainforests of seaward eastern Australia. The habitat is in a variety of different rainforest forms, though not often seen in the cool temperate rainforests. The range of natural distribution is from Durras Lake (35° S) near Batemans Bay in south east New South Wales, to Atherton (17° S) in tropical Queensland. Common names include black plum and yellow persimmon. " Grey plum", sometimes used for this species, usually denotes its northern relative ''D. pentamera''. Junior synonyms of ''D. australis'' are: * ''Cargillia australis'' R.Br. * ''Diospyros cargillia'' F.Muell. * ''Diospyros microcarpa'' Gürke * ''Maba cargilia'' F.Muell. Description An attractive small tree, rarely reaching a height of 20 metres and a trunk diameter of . The yellow tinged foliage and black berries make identification relatively easy. The base of the tree ...

Prunus Domestica
''Prunus domestica'', the European plum is a species of flowering plant in the family Rosaceae. A deciduous tree, it includes many varieties of the fruit trees known as plums in English, though not all plums belong to this species. The greengages and damsons also belong to subspecies of ''P. domestica''. Its hybrid parentage was believed to be ''Prunus spinosa'' and '' P. cerasifera''; however recent cytogenetic evidence seem to implicate 2×, 4×, 6× ''P. cerasifera'' as the sole wild stock from which the cultivated 6× ''P. domestica'' could have evolved. Description Typically it forms a large shrub or a small tree. It may be somewhat thorny, with white blossom, borne in early spring. The oval or spherical fruit varies in size, but can be up to across. The pulp is usually sweet, but some varieties are sour. Like all ''Prunus'' fruits, it contains a single large seed, usually called a stone, which is discarded when eating. Taxonomy Subspecies Cu ...

Syzygium Cumini
''Syzygium cumini'', commonly known as Malabar plum, Java plum, black plum, jamun, jaman, jambul, or jambolan, is an evergreen tropical tree in the flowering plant family Myrtaceae, and favored for its fruit, timber, and ornamental value. It is native to the Indian subcontinent, adjoining regions of Southeast Asia, including Myanmar, Sri Lanka, and the Andaman Islands. It can reach heights of up to and can live more than 100 years. A rapidly growing plant, it is considered an invasive species in many world regions. The name of the fruit, black plum, is sometimes mistranslated as blackberry, which is a different fruit in an unrelated order. ''Syzygium cumini'' has been introduced to areas including islands of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore. The tree was introduced to Florida in 1911 by the United States Department of Agriculture, and is commonly grown in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Its fruits are eaten by various nativ ...
